Pro-Trump Protesters, Conspiracy Theorists Descend on Broward County's Elections Office
Source: Miami New Times
Claims by Gov. Rick Scott, Sen. Marco Rubio, and President Donald Trump that Democrats are "stealing" the 2018 elections in Broward County have sparked the expected reaction. Despite the fact there appears to be zero evidence backing up the claims, conspiracy theorists, right-wing grifters, and pro-Trump protesters are now descending on the Broward County Supervisor of Elections office.
The "Broward County Election Theft" demonstration seems to have been co-organized by a former Trump-campaign volunteer from Miami, Juan Fiol, who has been posting online. Miami Herald reporter Alex Harris has already posted that roughly 60 people appear to be outside right now chanting "Lock her up!" at Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes. The incident calls to mind the infamous 2000 "Brooks Brothers riot" a pro-Bush "protest" that right-wing provocateur Roger Stone later admitted he organized.

As reporter Jared Holt at Right Wing Watch noted today, alt-right personality Jack Posobiec this week told his followers that Roger Stone is "on the ground" and that there are "assets going to be deployed" in South Florida.

(531 posts)GOP is trying to pre-steal those electoral college votes for 2020.
With TX already stolen, Trump's 2nd term is already in the bag unless this sh*t in FL is overturned.
God help us.

(297 posts)They need a republican governor and senate control of Florida to steal 2020 for trump. Rick Scott has been allowing part time FL residents to vote here in Florida for 8 years, and they brag about it, and now we find out he is letting felons to register and vote republican while suppressing democrat voters.
A hand recount will expose rick Scotts election corruption, and he, the bush family, Koch bros and greedy polluters will never let that happen. FL Supreme Court will be stepping in and stop it before that happens, because too much is at stake.
